Move heavy box

$150

Wright ACT 2611, Australia

30th Jun 2025

Job is to move one heavy and tall box (about 100kg) up 3 flights of stairs within the same building (unfortunately no elevator in building) - from my underground carpark to my apartment. Preferably 2 people with a heavy duty 3 wheeled (for stairs) trolley and straps. Having 2 people, the trolley and straps, should make the job take less than 30 minutes. Happy to answer any questions. Pickup location: Wright ACT, Australia Removals size: One item Stairs: Yes

Amazing work! The job was to move a heavy box (over 100kg) up 3 flights of stairs. I was initially a bit skeptical when only 1 person arrived when I said I think 2 will be needed, but the person said there was somebody else who could come over if needed, though he showed me that he was as strong as 3 people - he was polite, professional, careful and did the job in less than 10 minutes. Highly recommend Lupe and her team.

Help with moving a few heavy awkward items.

$200

Turner ACT, Australia

22nd May 2025

Just need some expert help with moving some heavier items - only moving a kilometre or so, and job should take no longer than an hour or so. No stairs at old place (lift and easy access through front of building), but one set of stairs (about 20 or so at new place) at new place, and would prefer someone with experience to move these objects up and into the new place. Key items we are asking for assistance with moving are: - An electric piano (This is heavy - about 60 - 80kg and will need specialist dolly/equipment to get up stairs) - Fridge - Washing Machine - Lounge (splits into a couple of parts, but has an electric recliner in one end that makes it heavy). Ideally you will have your own truck to do the move of those items - but we will have access to a hire truck for some time early on Saturday 31 May if necessary. Needs to be completed either the afternoon of Friday 30th May, or anytime on Saturday 31st May. Experience moving pianos is essential - it is going to be difficult to move up the stairs, so want someone that knows what they are doing so to ensure it is not damaged. Pickup location: Turner ACT, Australia Drop-off location: Turner ACT, Australia Removals size: A few items Stairs: At delivery Any questions/clarifications please send them through.

Got the job done well in the end - thank you.

I have a pergola in boxes (11boxes) that need to be moved from the garage to the backyard. All boxes vary in weight. A couple of strong people and about an hour of your time will work. Access via the courtyard only. About 15m away.
